Plastic Bag Skipping Rope

Share

WHAT YOU NEED:

- 12 plastic bags
- Scissors
- Sticky tape

WHAT YOU DO:

1. Cut the plastic bags open so they are in one flat piece.
2. Cut off the handles and any extra pieces so you are left with one
large rectangle of plastic.
3. Cut each rectangle into long strips. It doesn't really matter if the
strips are the same width or even
length.
4. Tie the strips together to a little longer then the length you want
the skipping rope to be.
5. Cut off the extra end bits of plastic bags sticking out of the knots.
You will need 12 lengths of plastic bags tied together.
6. Take six strips and tape them together with tape and tape the whole group
to the table or chair.
7. Then plait the six strips together into one very long skipping rope
sized plait.
8. Repeat this step with the second 6 strips so you have two long
plastic plaits.
9. Twist the two plaits together tightly so that the skipping rope has
enough weight to swing when jumping.
10. After twisting the two plaits together tape each end with tape to
create a handle.
